deadlinecommand -multi error

[anon10437274]

Hi

beta 13

When submitting using the -multi option on deadlinecommand (or deadlinecommandbg) it’s throwing a missing file error:

ie this:

“C:\Program Files\Thinkbox\Deadline6\bin/deadlinecommand.exe” -multi -dependent -job C:\Users\gadam\AppData\Local\Thinkbox\Deadline6/temp/houdini_job_info.job C:\Users\gadam\AppData\Local\Thinkbox\Deadline6/temp/houdini_plugin_info.job Y:/DeepSeaChallenge/RnD/deadlineTesting.hip -job C:\Users\gadam\AppData\Local\Thinkbox\Deadline6/temp/mantra_job_info.job C:\Users\gadam\AppData\Local\Thinkbox\Deadline6/temp/mantra_plugin_info.job

returns this:

Error importing module ‘DeadlineUI.Forms.GeneralForms’: ImportError : DLL load failed: The specified procedure could not be found. (Python.Runtime.PythonException)
Error: Python Exception: ImportError : DLL load failed: The specified procedure could not be found. (Python.Runtime.PythonException)
Type: <type ‘exceptions.ImportError’>
Value: DLL load failed: The specified procedure could not be found.
Stack Trace:
[’ File “DeadlineUI\UI\Forms\GeneralForms.py”, line 7, in \n’]
(System.Exception)

Looking in the Deadline bin structure, there is a ‘GeneralForms’ in

C:\Program Files\Thinkbox\Deadline6\bin\UI\DeadlineUI\Forms\GeneralForms.pyc

which doesn’t match the path in the error (but copying files around doesn’t seem to help).

(Should it be calling UI at all?)

Submitting without the -multi (and without the -dependent and -job flags) is working fine so far however.

cheers,

Hey Grant,

We can reproduce this, and it should be fixed in beta 14. In the meantime, you would need to run that command with the deadline bin folder as the current directory to make it work.

Cheers,

Thanks. I set it up as two submissions with the second using the id of the first which will do for the moment, I’ll flip back to multi later on.
